Definitions

• the invention relates to an RFID tag according to claim 1.
• an RFID tag is known in which a complete transponder consisting of a mounted on a carrier antenna with a connected chip is first transferred to a carrier layer, which is then connected to a design label, the latter the support layer saumartig Ü- reaches , Since the transponder is present as a unit, it forms its own layer and thus leads to a three-layered and therefore relatively thick and rigid RFID tag.
• Such RFID labels are relatively complex and not very flexible and form when used in garments undesirable discontinuities that affect the comfort.
• the object of the invention is to improve an RFID tag of the type mentioned.
• the object is achieved by the RFID label according to claim 1.
• RFID label has a textile layer, which is divided along a fold line into two sections, wherein the first portion is designed as a design label over which the second section is folded, which is designed as a transponder etiquette and incorporates an antenna incorporated or applied that with the chip is connected, initially results in a very simple RFI D-label, since it is manufactured in one piece and thus one side of the design label is already firmly connected to the transponder etiquette.
• the second section of the textile layer can be produced at a significantly lower number of passes per cm than the first section.
• the chip and the antenna thread need not be worked over the thickening given by the floating figure threads.
• the antenna is incorporated into or attached to the textile layer also places the chip directly on the textile layer and connects it to the antenna, thus forming a transponder label which is directly connected to the design label.
• the antenna and the chip are also protected.
• the antenna is arranged in a meandering or zigzag-shaped or coil-like manner in or on the textile layer.
• the antenna may be guided at the second portion in each case to the section edge and thus have no continuation in the first section.
• the antenna along the design label to lead to the edge, which faces away from the fold line. This is particularly advantageous for the production of RFID tags, since such RFID tags are usually produced sequentially on a loom and the antenna thread can then be continuously passed from one label to the next without interruption.
• the RFID tag preferably has an RF or UHF chip according to claim.
• the textile layer is knitted or woven according to claim 6, wherein the antenna is acted or woven. According to claim 7, the textile layer can also as Nonwoven be formed in or on which an antenna is arranged.
• the RFID tag can also be plasticized, which can improve the durability.
• the textile layer contains a hot melt adhesive thread, by means of which the sections are connected to each other.
• the antenna can be soldered to the chip. It is particularly simple if, according to claim 11, the antenna is connected to the chip by means of an electrically conductive adhesive. A particularly stable design results according to claim 12, when the chip is additionally connected to the textile layer by gluing.
• the second portion is at most as large as the first portion so that the second portion does not project beyond the design label.
• the training of. RFID tag according to claim 14 facilitates their production, when the textile layer is woven and the fold line runs in the weft direction, then the antenna thread can be treated in the manner of a warp thread, that is fed and laid.
• the textile layer with the incorporated antenna according to claim 15 is produced on a needle loom, whereby secured edges are provided. But also a production according to claim 16 is possible, wherein the textile layer is made with the incorporated antenna on a loom and then cut into individual bands.
• FIG. 1 shows an RFID label with design label with transponder label folded over it in a perspective view
• FIG 2 shows the RFID label of Figure 1 in the unfolded state in plan view.
• Figure 5 shows the chip arrangement in cross section.
• FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an RFID label 2, which is formed from a textile layer 4, which is divided along a fold line 6 into a first section 8 and into a second section 10.
• the first section is designed as a design label and can be provided with corresponding image and / or word signs.
• the second section 10 which is designed as a transponder etiquette, contains an antenna 12 which, in the example shown, is fashioned meander-shaped in the textile layer 4. At the antenna, a chip 14 is connected.
• the length L of the second section 10 is at most as large or, preferably, smaller than the length of the first section 8.
• the second section 10 is folded over the first section 8 and abuts against it, as can be seen in particular from FIG.
• the second portion 10 may be connected not only along the fold line 6 with the first portion 8, but also by additional measures, such as bonding by adhesive threads not shown in one of the sections.
• FIG. 2 shows the layout of the unfolded RFID tag 2 from which the arrangement of the antenna can be seen.
• the antenna 12 is meandering and is guided in the first section 8 of the textile layer 4 in a straight line from the fold line 6 to an edge 16 which faces away from the fold line 6.
• This design has the advantage that the antenna 12 can be inserted continuously in a textile layer 4 produced in a ribbon-like manner and merges seamlessly from an RFID label 2 into a subsequent RFID label 2a.
• a label is preferably made with a needle loom, the fold line extending in the direction of the weft and the antenna 12 can be fed analogously to a warp thread.
• FIG. 3 shows a modified embodiment of the FRID label 2b, in which the antenna 12a is guided laterally outwards on the second section 10 and extends outside the first section 8 during the production of the RFID label.
• the outside of the first section antenna thread 12b is separated after the production of a band of RFID Etiktetten.
• the chip 14 has a carrier 18 which contains the connections of the chip, which are not shown in detail, which are each conductively connected via a conductive adhesive 20, 22 to antenna sections 24, 26 of the antenna 12.
• the chip 14 is connected via a further adhesive 28 to the textile layer 4.
• the antenna 12 has a short-circuit bridge 30, which can be switched off with an interruption 32. The arrangement is such that 14 antenna sections of approximately the same length are available on both sides of the chip.
